Minneapolis is home to the Minneapolis Sculpture garden where the above Spoonbridge and Cherry is the center piece. In my research I found a website of the Smithsonian American Art Museum called Save Outdoor Sculpture! –SOS! ,and I found that Minneapolis has a lot more hidden sculptures. This volunteer-based program’s mission is to preserve and celebrate America’s outdoor sculptures. Nearly 7,000 volunteers are collecting information about the history and condition of their communities public sculptures, and they have found many of them to be at risk. SOS! works with individuals and groups to document, restore and educate people about these free public artworks.
Not only does this site encourage us to document public sculptures and help find resources to conserve your communities’ sculptures, but it has an amazing data base of really cool sculptures all over the world to discover. I suggest to you this spring go discover or rediscover the public art in your community.
P.S. I have attached some of the sculptures of Minneapolis to your tarotcast. Remember, signs with * it’s a big week for you.
Aries – Ace of Swords – The Ace of Swords is challenging you to change your mind. This could be accomplished by learning something new, changing an old thought, or changing your stance on something. With any of these choices you will gain a new perspective on how you think.
Taurus – Seven of Swords – The Seven of Swords’ lesson is around regrouping. This continues the theme from last week to recognize what you have accomplished in the past three months. Last week it was time to celebrate and continue your work. This week is all about stepping back to tally and restock your resources.

Aries – Two of Pentacles – Two of Pentacles continues your current theme of getting things done. The Two of Pentacles’ challenge is to learn how to balance the things that you have to do with the things that you want to do. My advice is to make two lists, have to and want to. Then as you go through the week make sure they are being checked off evenly.
Taurus – Ten of Pentacles – The Ten of Pentacles’ lesson is around prosperity. You have accomplished something really amazing in the past three months, and you need to take this week to celebrate and honor your hard–work. Also realize that your work is now bumped up to the next level. The appearance of this card doesn’t mean that you need to take this week off, but please take a moment to pat yourself on the back.
Aries – Ten of Pentacles – Last week, the Lovers card asked – What do you really desire? This week, the Ten of Pentacles challenges you to make those desires real. The energies surrounding you will bring more ease than you have seen in the last 3 months. So, make your to-do lists and start checking them off.
Taurus – Seven of Wands – Last week, Strength challenged you to take part in activities that were grounding and gave you strength. You needed that prep last week this week is going to be hectic. The Seven of Wands challenges you to stay focus while plowing through the chaos of the week.
*Aries – Lovers – Don’t be surprised if you are having a hard time deciding this week; however, it is a decision making time. The Lovers card asks What do you really desire? What, Who , Where contributes to your life? Take your time and be aware of what your creative self is saying to you this week. And remember two heads are better than one, bounce ideas off of your friends.
*Taurus – Strength – What makes you strong? This week is great time to work on enhancing your core strength. Is your inner strength your family? making food? art? alone time? doing for others? Find the things that ground you and gives you strength and imbibed on them this week.
Aries – Page of Pentacles – During the last two weeks you have been lightening up some of your dark corners of thought. In so doing you have found that you need to polish up some of your thought processes. So, the Page of Pentacles’ challenge to you is that you learn new or expand on existing thought processes or skills this week. The more open you are to new ways of doing things, the better the outcome for you.
Taurus – Page of Swords – Your work continues this week. Take a pause on producing – right now you need to do some investigative work. This is a week to dig for information by asking questions, reading new articles or books, or having some probing conversations.
I often use the idiom waiting for the other shoe to drop. This saying comes from late 1800s tenement life. Because of the shoddy construction and floor layout of tenements, tenants below would hear one shoe hitting the floor then wait with baited breath for the other shoe to fall loudly above their head. I use this phrase by its definition to await a seemingly inevitable event, especially one that is not desirable. I use it to represent my anxiety and all of its negative connotations.
*Aries – The Moon – The Moon’s lessons are around lightening up the dark. Put into action, this can look as complex as seeing how your subconscious is controlling your life because you are pushing down emotions that need illumination, or as simple as buying a battery light for your dark closet.
Taurus – Knight of Cups – Last week was all work. This week your heart is asking for a turn. The Knight of Cups wants to balance you out by reminding you to pay attention to your emotional needs. You all have a big heart, but sometimes you get too caught up in doing. So you need to make the first move, put on some
